Mon Viso from near our house |
We came from down there. |
Ice in the mountain stream |
Yesterday we hit the same trail and did some more exploring. We did a lot of "let's go up this slope" and then had to turn around when we reached a point we couldn't go any further. We also played in the snow a lot which was fun.
We only went for about an hour and a half that time because we were meeting Fabri's parents for lunch afterwards. As we were getting back to the car which was parked on the road below a farmhouse, there were two GIANT dogs waiting for us. They began barking at us when we were still way up above them and we were a bit nervous to get close to them. Olney had already met the brown curly haired one with the bobbed tail when we arrived on the trail and he was friendly, so I told Fabri I think we should just keep going and get Olney into the car as quickly as possible. It's scary when you meet giant dogs with no owner anywhere nearby. Everything was fine though, there was a little bit of growling, but only for a second. Olney's hair was standing on end, but we tried to keep moving until we got to the car and the big dogs decided there wasn't anything interesting about us anymore.
We met Antonio and Maria Pia on our way down to the apartment in a snowy field near a sled hill. Then we all went to the apartment so Fabri and I could change for lunch. In the next post I will write about lunch which was super duper awesome and I can't wait to go back!

Italy has crazy mountain people, too? But at least are they well dressed?
The Italian crazy mountain people don't even speak Italian!! But I think they're pretty rich.
My boss just went snowshoeing (that cannot be how that's spelled...) in New Hampshire last week, and he loved it. He said it was way cold but really fun! On a completely different note, Marcello is cooking jambalaya right now and it smells awesome. Almond cake for dessert!!
I am all caught up with your posts again! Yay! I really admire your love and ability to stay out in frigid temperatures and still have fun. And you are right, I can really tell you love snowshoeing. I bet it is great exercise, too. To bad there is no warm snowshoeing for me to try...Hah! Miss you doll.
